Big Announcement! Our Future RV Plans

It's time to announce our future RV Plans. We can't keep them a secret anymore! We just had to share them with you. And we are so excited about what 2022 will mean for our RV Lifestyle.

We're getting a new RV.

Two of them.

We go into lots of detail in Episode 390 of the RV Podcast, the video version of which appears below.

An audio version is available on your favorite podcast app - Apple Podcasts, Google Podcasts, Spotify, Stitcher, etc. - or you can hear it right now in the audio player below.

Why are we getting two new RVs?

As we explain in the podcast, these are unusual times. Higher fuel prices have us staying longer in various places. Campgrounds are increasingly more difficult to find openings. And inflation makes life on the road ever more expensive.

Those are some of the reasons we decided to buy our own land in Tennessee and to develop it into a private RV retreat for ourselves and our invited friends. We hope to do the same thing in Michigan later this year. And, yes, in our crazy dreams, we might even like another lot or RV land somewhere else so we can always be sure to have a spot where we can stay anytime and for as long as we want.

Those plans, which we are really excited about, are the driving force for our decision to purchase one of our new RVs!

Our Future RV Plans include the purchase of a 32-foot long Keystone Arcadia 5th Wheel!

In just a few weeks, we will purchase a Keystone Arcadia 3250RL 5th wheel. We first saw this beautiful unit at the Tampa RV Show in January. You can see how excited we were about it in the video we did touring the Arcadia 3250.

Honestly, a fifth wheel was the last thing on our mind when we went to the show.

In our many years of RVing, we've had a travel trailer, a pop-up camper, several Class B campervans, and two Class C motorhomes. We've loved every one of them. But we never even thought about a 5th wheel.

Until we saw the Arcadia 3250 RL. We were instantly smitten by the decor, the innovative way it was constructed, the massive solar and Dragonfly lithium batteries for off the grid capabilities, and the fact that one of the Arcadia models was named the RV of the Year for 2022 by RV Business out of hundreds of RVs they reviewed at the Hershey RV show last fall.

"Holy smokes," said Jennifer's reaction to seeing the Arcadia 3250RL at Tampa. "Now I see why 5th wheels are so popular."

We talked about it a lot. Pictured it on our property in Tennesee. In Michigan. On a cross-country trip we hope to take this summer.

For our future RV Plans, we have ordered a Keystone Arcadia 3250RL

So we ordered one.

On Monday of this week, it went into production at the Keystone factory in Goshen, IN. We hope to take possession by the end of this month.

We'll have lots more to show you when that happens.

But that takes us to RV number two.

Our future RV Plans also include a 2023 Leisure Travel Vans Unity FX
